Capt. Sig, the Hilllstrands return to ‘Deadliest Catch’

It turns out that Dutch Harbor, the little Alaska fishing village, is big enough for a Seattle crab fisherman, two other skippers and “Deadliest Catch” after all.

Sig Hansen of Shoreline and Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand will be part of the series when it begins filming in Dutch Harbor next week, The Los Angeles Times reports.

“We’re happy we worked everything out with Discovery,” Hansen said in a statement. “A deal’s a deal. We’re heading up to Dutch Harbor to start filming the new season of ‘Deadliest Catch’ and hopefully it will be the best one yet.”

Last week, all three said they wouldn’t be returning. The Hillstrands cited their being sued by Discovery over work the network said they didn’t do.

Hansen said he would support the brothers and not appear either.

Meanwhile, the sons of the late Capt. Phil Harris, Josh and Jake, will also appear in the series.

“Our dad made a tremendous connection with so many fans, and it is such a fitting tribute to his life that we, his sons, can remain fishing on the boat that he skippered for so many years” the sons said in a statement.
